geared   318 #97 Posted August 29, 2018 A fourth vape shop is due to open soon in Chapeltown Should this type of use be subject to stronger planning regulations (like book makers) given the addictive nature of their products?  Only the other day there were calls by MP's to allow vaping on buses (I really hope not!). So I guess the answer to that question is a big no. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Everyone goes to supermarkets or online coz it’s cheaper so not many businesses are viable apart from ones that can’t be run online.
